The Z-Realm finally returns after a long, deathless slumber. The 5th season premiere of
AMC's The Walking Dead has lured 2 of the 3 co-hosts back together to ruminate on this mostly
triumphant return to form. Featuring a completely badass
Carol, and an utterly frantic
Rick, this was a very strong episode that truly started off the 5th season with both a figurative as well as literal
BANG ( I mean, look at that screen shot! ). We then turn our attention to the SyFy channel's new series "
Z-Nation"
and the conversation takes a bit of a nosedive until we remember that
even the Walking Dead doesn't always hit homeruns. With a somewhat
lighter take on the idea of a zombie apocalypse, Z-Nation shows
potential, but mostly left us wanting for more. We wrap up with a
short but far-ranging talk about other media before calling it a night
until next time. Please let us know what you thought of the podcast, and
the topics we discussed by writing to us at
mail@z-realm.com or by posting a message on our
Facebook page.
